Only displays overall status, I need to know the times I'm affected both at home and work and wherever else I choose and notifications for those locations

Thanx for the feedback. Unfortunately app still not working after latest update. It now opens and status says checking and after a while says either no internet connection or make sure data is on. This while I'm on wifi and all other apps are working fine so definitely not a connection problem. This happens on both my phone Galaxy S4 and Lenovo tablet.

Wish I kept the original. The name change broke notifications and now this latest update broke everything. Can't believe you ruined a perfectly good and working app.

Really like the app. Works well. Although since the last update there are no more notifications? Would be nice to get those again for stage changes. Thx!

by K####:

Please just fix the notifications again

K70%
by K####:

It would be great if you could let us know the times and the area we are in currently... but mostly may be give us times with the notifications of what time till what time we will be affected so that can plan accordingly

I love this app, but since the nam e change I have not received any notifications of stage changes. Today we're on Stage 2 without warning. Did I miss something?

E70%
by E####:

Simple, and helpful. Lets you know when load shedding kicks in so you can check your local schedule.

K70%
by K####:

I had been meaning to revoke my negative review on the previous build. It's actually quite helpful to be notified when there is loadshedding. I keep the schedule as a bookmark so that I can see if it will be affecting me. I still think it would help if the schedule was built in to the app so that it would be self sufficient, but it's a good app nonetheless for what it does. Thank you

N70%
by N####:

When this app was still called "Eskom load shedding" it was amazing! Would notify me every time the stage of load shedding changed! Now, since the change of name, I don't get notifications anymore! I have to manually open the app and check which stage of load shedding we are currently in. Please bring back/fix the notifications, as this was the best feature!

Fantastic app. Thanks for providing a free service that helps keep me informed on load shedding status. Very much appreciated.

G70%
by G####:

Awesome app still and does what it says. Curious as to why it changed but I assume eskom had a little cry because of their name being in the apps name.

Simpler than this you dont get. Love the push notifications. If you want times, go check the website. I like the simplicity of this app.

It's OK. Should include location

It's a pity Eskom made you change the name instead of endorsing you.
